lican State Convention was calleu W
order at 10 A. NJ. The Committee on
/ Credentials and Rules reported, and
their reports were adopted. Ex-Gov-
ernor Charles Foster, Chairman of the
| Committee on Resolutions, read the
platform. The platform adopted begins
with a strong protective tariff plank,
as follows:
We are in favor OF a protective tariff
to secure to American citizens the
privilege of supplying every article
| which can be produced as well in the
| United States as in other countries
and sufficiently to supply American
wants. Such a tariff makes a demand
for and gives employment to Ameri-
can labor, and thereby aids in secur-
ing a Just compensation for labor.
| The plank in the Democratic plat
form, a tariff for revenue only, is de-
nounced.
Congress is urged to pass laws to
protect the United States from An
archists and Communists and fugitives
from Justice, dependent paupers, in
| sane and all others who seek our
| shores not to become part Of our
| civilization, but who come among us
to make war on our institutions.
The platform pays a tribute to the
| unfaltering loyalty and long services
of John Sherman, whose genius and
| patriotism are stamped upon the
statutes and Constitution of the coun-
try, and presents his name to the peo-
| pie of the United State as a candidate
| for the Presidency, assuring him OF
hearty and cordial support. and believ-
ing that his nomination will be wise
and judicious.
Governor Foraker was nominated
for a second term !; Capt. A. c.. Lyon, OF
Newark, for Lieutenant Governor.

ALBUQUERQUE, N. M, July 90
News has just been received of a
terrible accident on the Atlantic

Disorder I'm Kentuky.
LEXINGTON, KY, July 29-Colonel
John B. Castleman and Adjt. Roger
Williams returned from Morehead,
| where they had been sent by Cover
nor Knott to inquire into the propriety
| of sending troops there to attend the
sessions of the Circuit Court, which is
set to convene next Monday. The
| Governors commission decided to re-
port adversely to sending troops. The
town is dead. Every business house
is closed, and the doors nailed up,
with the exception of one small
grocery store and a saloon. The
latter is being carried on by the widow
| of Craig Tolliver. The town is pa
trolled day and night by 40 members
of the Law Order Society, armed with
rifles. 1t is the general feeling that as
soon as the patrol is removed the Toll
liverites will sweep down on the town
and avenge the death of their chief.
| 1t is believed the only true solution Of
| the bloody feud is to let the citizens OF
Rowan county it settle among them
selves.
New and Old Observation-Disclosures.
New YORK, July 29.-An article by
DIR. McGlynn, entitled New Know
Nothingism and DID," appears in the
August number of the North Ameri-
can Review. The paper is a strong
presentation of the evils and dangers
which, in the writer's opinion, threaten
American nationality and American
institutions from, as he alleges. the
avowed purpose of German clergymen
to prevent the assimilation of their
immigrant countrymen and offspring
to the American type on one hand,
and the political scheming and sec
tartan educational tendencies Of the
Roman Catholic Church on the other.
TayIOr's Remains.
SALT LAKE, July president Tay-
lor's body still lies at the Grade
House but will be transferred to the
Tabernacle early this morning. Over
10000 people viewed Brigham Young's
remains but it is believed not half
that number will pass Taylor's bier.
The church papers religiously abstain
from giving any further facts concern
ing Taylor's death, so that the place
and cause are still shrouded in mys-
terry.
